Celebration of Life Funeral

A celebration of life funeral has become a popular alternative to the traditional funeral service. The celebration of life service focuses on the life of the individual rather than a focus on the death and afterlife. This type of service is less formal and usually incorporates eulogies or a "sharing of memories" from friends and family members. Often, photos or momentoes that reflect the

decedents hobbies or interests are displayed to further personalize the service. Also, a celebration of life service is many times officiated by someone other than a traditional clergyman.
